Chapter 416: Who Sent You?
The dilapidated windows of golden light shone into the room, and when Xiuyue opened her eyes, she found that there was no one on the bed.
She woke up as soon as she came to her senses, thinking of Lin Mumu standing by the well at night, and suddenly got up and was about to go out of the house, almost hitting the person who followed up.
"Yikes!"
Xiuyue staggered back and took a moment before she stood firm.
"Are you in such a hurry to go to the hut?" Lin Mumu looked at her suspiciously.
"County, county lord......"
"What, think I ran away? What did the emperor tell you when you came out? If I run away, you'll all have to die? ”
Xiuyue's face turned pale, and she looked at Lin Mumu in a daze and was speechless.
Lin Mumu didn't plan to listen to her answer.
"I don't know when the emperor's message will be delivered, and how long we will stay in this place where birds don't."
Xiuyue came back to her senses. "Don't worry, the county lord, this place is not far from Xijing, and you should be able to receive a reply from the emperor soon."
Lin Mumu shrugged and returned to the plank bed to lie down. "I'm going to get some sleep, don't bother me if it's okay."
Xiuyue saw that Lin Mumu had closed her eyes, and she didn't dare to disturb and bowed slightly, so she retreated.
That night, Lin Mumu, who had slept all day, was very energetic, and after dinner, she asked Xiuyue to turn off the lights.
The night was silent, but a white figure floated to Lin Mumu's house like a ghost, and with a gentle push of his pale fingertips, the door was pushed open.
He entered the house silently, and came to Lin Mumu's bed quietly, he looked at Lin Mumu's sleeping back, a sinister smile appeared on his bloodless face, and slowly stretched out his hands to Lin Mumu's neck.
"So, you're planning to harm me?" Just as his hand was about to touch the steaming neck, a lazy voice suddenly remembered behind him.
The movement of his hand paused, and he subconsciously turned to look behind him, but as soon as he moved, the acupoints on his body were stopped, and he instantly froze in place.
Lin Mumu shook the wooden stick in his hand and walked to him, lit the candle in his hand and looked him up and down.
Beneath his horrible long hair was a ridiculously white face, with blood flowing from his eyes, nose and mouth, and the white clothes on his body swaying with the night wind, which was really a little scary at first glance.
Who is Lin Mumu, when her grandfather threw her to the graveyard in the middle of the night to exercise her courage in order to let her study medicine, she has been a person who is not afraid of heaven and earth since she was a child, otherwise where can she grow up healthily to the age of twenty.
"Isn't this makeup technique a little worse?" She reached out and wiped the "blood" on his face, put it to the tip of her nose and sniffed it. "Tsk, this is cheap rouge, right?"
The man's face was stiff and he looked at Lin Mumu, who was "picking" her.
"Tell me, who sent you, you didn't inquire about my Lin Mumu's reputation before you came? Is this ability trying to scare me to death? Lin Mumu pulled the stool with a missing corner on the side and sat down, holding a stick on the ground with a stick in his hand, looking arrogant as a gangster. If you confess honestly, the county lord is in a good mood to leave you a whole corpse, if you are disobedient. The corners of her lips curled. I'm going to turn you into a real ghost! ”
The look on the man's face gradually changed from initial stunned to interested, and he looked at Lin Mumu thoughtfully and said, "You're not afraid?" ”
"Hah, did you say you?"
The man raised an eyebrow.
Lin Mumu suddenly shrunk her neck and hugged her hands. "I'm so scared, so please tell me which idiot you're before you die, okay?"
"I was sent by the prince of Western Chu."
Lin Mumu lifted her eyelids. "Prince of Western Chu? The one who was arranged to be with me? ”
The man raised an eyebrow. "He doesn't have that much power."
These words aroused Lin Mumu's interest, thinking that he would have to live there for a while when he came to Xichu, and he should understand the situation first.
"Make it clear, don't talk to your aunt and grandmother."
The man looked at Lin Mumu's arrogant sitting statue and smiled, with his makeup at night, this smile was really a bit infiltrating.
"You're a princess from the bandits' den, right? Come to think of it, where would the monarch of the Eastern Jin Dynasty be willing to let his daughter go to Western Chu and kiss. As he said this, a flash of irony flashed in his eyes.
Lin Mumu nodded in agreement. "You're right, how could a hypocritical person like Emperor Showa waste a real princess without complete certainty."
The man was stunned again. "You really didn't come out of a bandit den?" He had never seen anyone dare to slander the monarch of his country so blatantly, especially since this person was still a princess.
"Alright, don't tear me off, let's say, who is the person who sent you?"
"Princess Crescent." The man said.
"Nangong Allure." Nangong Allure wanted her life, she was not surprised at all, but to say that Nangong Allure would let people ask for her life at such a time, she felt that she was a little stupid.
After all, this is still in the territory of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and the adventure coefficient of wanting to move her Nangong Allure City is much higher, but it will be different if she goes to Western Chu.
"Nangong Allure has no brains to this extent?" Lin Mumu looked at the man and suddenly laughed. "The county lord doesn't like liars, you want me to be tortured, huh?"
The man looked at Lin Mumu and suddenly showed a harmless smile. "The county lord doesn't want to know who he will marry?"
"Tell me." Scale Literature
"The son of succession, the waste prince."
The Abolished Prince......
Lin Mumu frowned slightly, she also knew some about the situation in Western Chu before she came, Nangong Chengcheng and Nangong Cong, who came to the Eastern Jin Dynasty before, were born by the current queen of Western Chu, and the current queen is not the original match of the monarch of Western Chu, the queen of Western Chu died of dystocia twenty years ago, leaving Nangong Zun, the eldest son who was named the prince at birth.
To say that this Nangong Zun is also a cub with a bumpy fate, he was born without a mother, Queen Yuan heard that she is a gentle and kind queen who does not like to seek benefits for her mother's family, and only manages the harem, so after her death, Nangong Zun did not have a strong relative behind her, but a few years, after the monarch of Western Chu married the current queen, he was deposed.
Sure enough, if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather.
Nangong Zun's identity can be said to be extremely embarrassing in the Western Chu royal family, if his mother dies and his father is not hurt, naturally no one will put him in his eyes, if the monarch of Western Chu really makes him a candidate for harmony, then this attitude is not far from Emperor Showa, and the two sides are preparing to tear their faces at any time.
"How is this waste prince doing in Xichu?"
The man was stunned for a moment, thinking that Lin Mumu would be angry when he heard it, but he didn't expect her to ask such a question.
"Aren't you angry? Let you marry such a person. ”
"You are also not a real princess, what am I angry about, if he eats and drinks without worry, it is not bad."
"You've been chosen from the bandits' den!"
Lin Mumu raised her eyebrows and looked at the man. "Why did you kill Xichu's envoys and Xiuhe?"
"You found out before I had blood on my hands, don't blame the good guys."
Lin Mumu was a little surprised. "You're saying you didn't kill those two people?"
"It's not."
Lin Mumu looked at him and frowned slightly. "Isn't it you who set up ghosts in that well on the night Xiuhe died?"
The man's eyes widened. "No, I only came to you last night!"
Lin Mumu looked at the man with her hands on her chest, looking at him with resentment in her eyes, as if she had really wronged him.
At this point, there was no need for him not to admit that he didn't kill the person, after all, he could die at her hands at any time, and it was redundant to make up lies to deceive her.
"Then you ......"
"Ah!! What the hell!! ”
Before Lin Mumu finished asking, a sharp scream suddenly came to mind in the room, and by the time she reacted and wanted to step forward to cover the other party's mouth, it was too late.
At this time, the man in the house suddenly broke through the acupuncture hole on his body, and jumped out of the window.
The officers and soldiers guarding the door heard the movement in the house, and immediately pushed open the courtyard door and rushed in.
"County Lord, what's going on?"
Lin Mumu looked at Xiuyue, who was so frightened that her face was paralyzed on the ground, and rubbed her sore temples. "It's nothing, it's just a nightmare, you guys stand down."
The officers and men looked around the room, and after noticing nothing unusual, they bowed down and withdrew.
Lin Mumu looked at Xiuyue and sighed, why didn't she take more drugs! At the critical moment, the bad thing and let people run away, a person who wants to kill her, let her run away and she will be more dangerous, what the hell!
Lin Mumu came to Xiuyue and stuffed a medicine directly in her mouth, and before Xiuyue could react, she only felt that it was dark in front of her and fell back on the bed.
Lin Mumu looked at the already dark night, and after pulling Xiuhe onto her plank, she also fell down and closed her eyes.
The courtyard returned to its previous calm, but there was a slight movement from the well in the courtyard, and a black ribbon like a woman's hair slowly emerged from the well.
"I said the village is weird too."
"Don't talk nonsense, we've seen the dead and are still afraid of a village where no one lives?"
After making sure that Lin Mumu and the others were fine, the officers and soldiers replied that they would stick to their original posts.
The two officers and soldiers outside the door looked at the endless night and muttered quietly.
"If it weren't for something strange happening to me, could I say evil?"
The other listened with interest. "Why, something strange happened to you, tell your buddy about it."
The officer and soldier hissed and lowered his voice: "I went to an abandoned farmhouse last night to relieve myself, do you guess what I saw at that time?" ”
"Don't be a god or a god, just say it if you have something to say."
The officer's eyes glanced around. "I saw a woman dressed in white going up the hill!"
"Hey, why don't you say that your friend from the kiln is coming to you, I think you kid is crazy about women!"
"Bah, what Lao Tzu said is true, after I finished my hand, I thought that this village had been abandoned for many years, where would there be the daughters of good people going to the mountains in the middle of the night, I was bold enough to follow, and then guess what?"
"What?"
"Then the man was gone! I stood behind a tree and looked in, good fellow, this is a graveyard! ”
